We're dividing 74498754 by 494 
We want to divide 74498754 by 494.

Moving on to step 1:
494 goes into 7 0 times with a remainder of 7.
Write down 0 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 7 after subtracting 0 from 7.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 7, then repeat: 74 / 494

Moving on to step 2:
The number 494 fits into 74 0 times, leaving a remainder of 74.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 74 leaves us with 74.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 74 and repeat the process: 744 / 494

Moving on to step 3:
If we divide 744 by 494, we get 1 and a remainder of 250.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1.0
Deduct 494 from 744 and we're left with 250.
Append the next digit (9) from the dividend to 250 and continue with: 2509 / 494

Let's proceed to step 4:
If we divide 2509 by 494, we get 5 and a remainder of 39.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 15.0
Subtracting 2470 from 2509 leaves us with 39.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 39 and continue with: 398 / 494

Step 5:
The number 494 fits into 398 0 times, leaving a remainder of 398.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 150.0
If we take 0 away from 398, we end up with 398.
Bring next digit (7) of the dividend behind the 398 and repeat the process: 3987 / 494

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 3987 by 494, we get 8 with a remainder of 35.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1508.0
The remainder is 35 after subtracting 3952 from 3987.
Fetch the next digit (5) from the dividend, attach it to 35 and continue: 355 / 494

Moving on to step 7:
355 divided by 494 is 0 with a remainder of 355.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 15080.0
Deduct 0 from 355 and we're left with 355.
Append the next digit (4) from the dividend to 355 and continue with: 3554 / 494

Let's proceed to step 8:
494 goes into 3554 7 times with a remainder of 96.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 150807.0
If we subtract 3458 from 3554, we get 96.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 960, and continue the process.

On to step 9:
The number 494 fits into 960 1 times, leaving a remainder of 466.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 150807.1
Subtract 494 from 960 to get 466.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4660, and continue the process.

Step 10:
If we divide 4660 by 494, we get 9 and a remainder of 214.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 150807.19
Subtract 4446 from 4660 to get 214.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 2140, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
494 goes into 2140 4 times with a remainder of 164.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 150807.194
Deduct 1976 from 2140 and we're left with 164.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
If we divide 1640 by 494, we get 3 and a remainder of 158.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 150807.1943
If we take 1482 away from 1640, we end up with 158.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1580, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 13:
494 goes into 1580 3 times with a remainder of 98.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 150807.19433
If we take 1482 away from 1580, we end up with 98.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 980, and continue the process.

The final result is 150807.19433 with a remainder of 9.8e-05.
